Question 1209628: Please help me answer this question
The cost of petrol rises by 2cents a litre.
Last week a man bought 20 litres at the old price
This week he bought 10 litres at the new price
All together it costed $9.20
What was the old price for 1 litre
Let x be the old price
Solution
I tried saying 20 times x plus 10 times x plus two is equal to 920cents
Then I got 20x plus 10x plus 20 is equal to 920 cents
Then I said 10x plus 20x is equal to 30x = 920 cents minus 20
Then I sais 30x + 900 divided by 30
I then got the answer x = 0,30 cents
